Pellegrini has been poor all season and the warning signs were there the previous season , never learned from his mistakes even though the penny dropped long ago.......missing out on the CL (Probably) is a disgrace in itself with our resourses - to think he was left a Premier winning team by Mancini and has steadily made us worse, is in itself, unacceptable.
Bayern Munich and Man City told the world of the managerial changes..........BM won their league ,in the final of their cup , SF CL...and lets be clear, their football was a fuckign joy to watch even though they lost out on goal difference , so for the fans who like to point to this as the reason why we we have been shite is complete nonsense.
He took over a team who had mounted a feeble defence of a title and failed to get beyond the group stage in CL yet again. This is not a defence of Pellegrini but let's not make stuff up eh?
No, he took a team over who had been in open revolt against a manager for several months of the previous season, and he reaped the benefits of treating the players like human beings in his first year. He then put up an equally poor title challenge as Mancini in his 2nd year despite no open revolt, and frankly performances were largely a joke in his 3rd.
I don't see anything in Pellegrini's achievements that Brendan Rodgers or anyone else we ridicule couldn't have done, the players' talent and discretionary effort got him through these 3 years, and whenever the talent couldn't be arsed, he was fucked - very limited manager and hardly ever made us more than the sum of the parts, mostly the opposite in fact.
